The following were survivors were in the vehicle: Mike Babb’s sister and brother-in-law, nephew and his nephew’s wife. The family had been to a performance of Disney on Ice at the Jacksonville Veterans Memorial Arena in Downtown Jacksonville and afterwards decided to visit a local restaurant when the unexpected happened.

Comments:

Anidjar & Levine’s senior partner, Marc Anidjar, comments on this accident: “This is an unfortunate accident that is devastating to the Babb family. In our firm, besides what local law enforcement would do to conduct an investigation, we would dispatch our own team to try and find clues. We would do everything possible to canvas the crime scene, look for private video footage, and question local residents and commuters. This should all be done as soon as possible after the accident to insure that the guilty driver is identified and will take responsibility for their actions. Our deepest sympathies go out to the Babb family that is trying to deal with this terrible crash.”
